Emmerdale have shared a first look at next week’s episodes after a huge twist that confirmed John Sugden’s victim Mackenzie Boyd was still alive on the ITV soap
A new Emmerdale clip reveals the fallout to the bombshell that Mackenzie Boyd is still alive on the ITV soap. He appeared to be murdered by John Sugden weeks ago, but he lived to tell the tale.
Now a new teaser has revealed what happens next, and a damning confession from Mack leaves his captor in visible unrest. The clip starts with a confused Mack waking up in a makeshift bed in an underground bunker.
Fans had seen John make his way to this hidden room on Friday, buried under the woodland ground. After days of fans suspecting the area he kept disappearing to was covering up a body, it turned out it was in fact a secret door.
This door led John down into his hidden room, where Mack was laying. The clip for next week reveals the moment Mack wakes up, and slowly begins to remember what happened to him.

Initially crying out in pain and appearing confused, he looks around and sees the IV drip attached to him and also realises he’s chained up. Mack begins to call out for help as he sees someone approach.
It’s John that emerges from the shadows though, with a look of fear etched across Mack’s face as he realises what’s going on. He sees flashbacks of the attack and realises he’s in danger.
But as he screams out for help not realising where he is and that no one will hear him, John approaches and tells him to save his energy and calm down. As Mack pleads for answers on where he is, John says he is “somewhere safe”.
But it’s so clear that Mack has remembered everything, and he soon issues a damning comment that leaves John nervous. Mack blurts out: “You tried to kill me, just like you killed Nate.”
John stares with unease, clearly realising Mack has remembered what he figured out and knowing he’s now in a predicament. But what will John do next and can Mack get away?
All will be revealed with plenty more scenes to come next week. John isn’t likely going to just let Mack leave surely, as he knows too much.
But the fact he’s kept him alive when he could easily have killed him means the chances of him silencing him for good could be small. Fans will see more from the pair next week, as the walls finally begin to close in on John.
